This week it’s Italy

Country Bhoys Italy

CELTIC Football Club is a name known throughout the football world, while in just about any country you care to mention, you’re guaranteed to find Celtic supporters proudly wearing the green and white Hoops.

And as well as having universal appeal, the Celtic first-team squad has a global look to it, with players from 13 countries playing their part in the historic success the club has enjoyed in recent seasons.

Over the course of this season we’ll be taking a closer look at these countries and their current Celtic links, as well as other nations who have played their part in our unique story.

AND IF YOU KNOW THE HISTORY

Two years after defeating Inter Milan in the final of the European Cup in 1967, Jock Stein’s Celtic visited Milan to take on AC in the quarter-final of the European Cup. The Hoops managed to secure an impressive 0-0 draw in the San Siro, despite a snow blizzard, and looked likely to reach the semi-finals once again. However, the Italians won 1-0 in Glasgow and moved into the last four. Giovanni Trapattoni – who went on to manage the Republic of Ireland and the Vatican City, among others – played for Milan in the San Siro contest.
